Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) reportedly owns a minority stake in the Aston Martin Formula 1 team. 

The fund’s holding totals almost 8 percent, Bloomberg reported, citing data from the UK’s Companies House registry.

Although Aston Martin announced Canadian billionaire Lawrence Stroll’s stake divestment, PIF’s investment was not previously disclosed, the report said.

PIF also owns a 17 percent stake in London Stock Exchange-listed carmaker Aston Martin, with state oil company Saudi Aramco being the main sponsor of the Formula 1 team.

Stroll, Aston Martin’s executive chairman, reportedly held preliminary talks with PIF in November about taking the British luxury auto manufacturer private.

Bahrain’s wealth fund Mumtalakat and Abu Dhabi-based CYVN Holdings agreed in September to a deal to take complete control of the McLaren racing team.  

In 2024, the Qatar Investment Authority acquired a “significant minority” stake in Audi’s Formula 1 team, becoming a long-term investor and strategic partner.

The Formula 1 calendar features four races in the Middle East: Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Abu Dhabi.

China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise

China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise

The post China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise China’s internet regulator has ordered the country’s biggest technology firms, including Alibaba and ByteDance, to stop purchasing Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D GPUs. According to the Financial Times, the move shuts down the last major channel for mass supplies of American chips to the Chinese market. Why Beijing Halted Nvidia Purchases Chinese companies had planned to buy tens of thousands of RTX Pro 6000D accelerators and had already begun testing them in servers. But regulators intervened, halting the purchases and signaling stricter controls than earlier measures placed on Nvidia’s H20 chip. Image: Nvidia An audit compared Huawei and Cambricon processors, along with chips developed by Alibaba and Baidu, against Nvidia’s export-approved products. Regulators concluded that Chinese chips had reached performance levels comparable to the restricted U.S. models. This assessment pushed authorities to advise firms to rely more heavily on domestic processors, further tightening Nvidia’s already limited position in China. China’s Drive Toward Tech Independence The decision highlights Beijing’s focus on import substitution — developing self-sufficient chip production to reduce reliance on U.S. supplies. “The signal is now clear: all attention is focused on building a domestic ecosystem,” said a representative of a leading Chinese tech company. Nvidia had unveiled the RTX Pro 6000D in July 2025 during CEO Jensen Huang’s visit to Beijing, in an attempt to keep a foothold in China after Washington restricted exports of its most advanced chips. But momentum is shifting. Industry sources told the Financial Times that Chinese manufacturers plan to triple AI chip production next year to meet growing demand. They believe “domestic supply will now be sufficient without Nvidia.” What It Means for the Future With Huawei, Cambricon, Alibaba, and Baidu stepping up, China is positioning itself for long-term technological independence. Nvidia, meanwhile, faces…
